Not sure what you mean by this.
If you have several forms and only one should show at a time, the best way is to create the forms as controls, and show them all, one at a time, on the one form.

I'm looking for a control for Winform which like DayPilot,But DayPilot is only for webform. 
I want to use the scheduling function in my winform applications.
Free Component is best.
Could anyone Help or give me any tips ? Thanks.

Hi everyone,
Does anybody know how to list all tollStripMenuItems of a MenuStrip
Thanks
Paulo

You may access each ToolStripMenuItem which are under main menu strip, using 'for each' structure of code. Following is a small code snippet which will return you all items of a given menu strip object-
----------------------------------------------
For Each MnuItm As ToolStripMenuItem In Me.MenuStrip1.Items
MsgBox(MnuItm.Text)
For Each DropItm As ToolStripMenuItem In MnuItm.DropDownItems
MsgBox(DropItm.Text)
Next
Next
-----------------------------------------------
I hope this helps.

Hi
I'm trying to use a separate form with a webbrowser control on it to show context-sensitive help for my application (don't ask why I don't use the Help class plz). Let's call this form HelpBrowser. When the user requests help for the first time, HelpBrowser is created from the main thread and shown using HelpBrowser.Show() as I want it modeless.
This all works fine except for this; if the HelpBrowser is already open and the user opens a dialog box (modal form) from the main form, HelpBrowser can not be accessed by user anymore as long as the dialog box is open (it can no be moved, resized, scrolled, etc. anymore but it still shows new help if user requests it). I guess this is because the modal dialog box freezes all other open forms while it is open. However, if HelpBrowser is opened for the first time from a dialog box everything works fine.
Is there a way to keep control of the HelpBrowser form at all times even when a dialog box is opened from the main form, while still keeping everything in one process? Passing the main form as an argument when calling Show doesn't make any difference.
Thanks

The way most apps handle this is to make the help type program, a seperate program. That's what VS does, for example.
A modal dialog is going to stop any other dialog in the same application from responding.

I see.
What then would be a good way to send help requests to the Help program?

Hello I'm a newbie in form design

Can I found some example ?

Hi,
ToolStripSplitButton is used to provide several option under a single button (similar to MenuItems).
Each option can be coded to perform certain taks on click events. Below is the code snippet which creates ToolStripLabel,ToolStripSplitButton,ToolStripComboBox,ToolStripProgressBar etc.

Hi,
I have 1 WindowsForm with 2 BackGround Workers.
Each BGW runs a process.
Each BGW has its own DatagridView and textbox as display ouptut when the ProgressChanged eventhandler is called.
So I see to textboxes running with text to see how far each process is.
My problem now is that when I click on my Form or on the Windows Desktop and than on my program again the windows form freezes, says (Not Responding). In the taskmanager I can see the program is still running.
After 10 minutes or so the application continues with show logtextx in the textboes en show how manu rows were proccessed.
How can I solve thi sproblem. I want the program to continue working if I click on the form.

Hi,
only the thread that creates a Control (Form, DGV, ...) is allowed to access it; all other
threads (such as BGW) should keep off, i.e. they need to use Control.InvokeRequired and
Control.Invoke to tell the owning thread to perform the access.
If not, either the GUI may/will freeze, the app will crash, or (since .NET 2.0) you will
get an illegal-cross-thread exception (which you can hide, but you can't hide the freezing
effects).
There are lots of articles on InvokeRequired etc., both on CodeProject and Google.

This is strange!
I am using the backgroundworker. The UI Thread starts the BackGroundWorker in a new thread.
The BackGroundWorker has 2 events called ProgressChangedEventHandler and RunWorkerCompletedEventHandler but they run in the GUI-Thread. By using the method ReportProgress(0) of the BackGroundWorker it is possible to update GUI-components in the ProgressChangedEventHandler.
No need for Control.InvokeRequired in here. And by using this way of BackGroundWorker no Illegal-Cross-Exceptions occur.
In the BackGroundWorker you must check if (BackGroundWorker.CancellationPending.Equals(true)) and then you can set the e.Cancel object.
Can a backgroundprocess consume so much from a pc (my processor show 30% usage) that the Form-Buttons freeze?
|
|
|
|

Hi,
which threads starts the BGW is irrelevant; the BGW always runs its own thread, which is
different from the GUI thread.
yes, ProgressChangedEventHandler and RunWorkerCompletedEventHandler will be run by
the GUI thread, no problem inside those handlers.
however, if your BGW itself tries to access Controls, a freeze is likely to occur.
MSDN says "You must be careful not to manipulate any user-interface objects in your
DoWork event handler. Instead, communicate to the user interface through the
ProgressChanged and RunWorkerCompleted events."
digimanus wrote: Can a backgroundprocess consume so much from a pc (my processor show 30% usage) that the Form-Buttons freeze?
AFAIK no, unless you manage to change the relative thread priorities.
Final thought: what is in your GUI code right after starting the BGW? You are not
waiting somehow for it to finish, do you?

Hi Luc,
I do not touch any GUI object in the BGW.
In the BGW I fill a String-object with text.
In the report progress I fill the txtInfo.Text with the filled String Object.
If the String object > 20000 characters or the multiline TextBox txtInfo is over 100 lines, the txtInfo.text is set to String.Empty;
This is done in the reportprogress
If the BGW is finished it runs the RunWorkerCompleted-eventhandler.
Has it to do with the fact I am using 2 BGW's?
The first BGW checks for 600000+ records if the status is 0, check in another database if he can find the relative and set status to 1 (if found) or -1 if not found.
This process is done by 10000 database rows.
The second proces checks for all records with Status=1 if the financial numbers are in the database.
If found an agreement for the financial numbers Status will become 2 otherwise an angreement, a payment and so on will be insert in the database.
This is done in batches of 25 records unless BGW 1 is finished (a Boolean will tehn be true).
Batches will than have a size of 1000 rows.
Is this just to much for .NET?

Hi,
there is nothing fundamentally wrong it what you told here; this could work just fine.
The amount of work is actually irrelevant: when implemented properly the GUI should stay
alive and responsive at all times, and all the work is done, well, in the background.
Now here is maybe a clue: if one of your BGWs is keeping the database very busy
(and if the DB is on another machine, it would not show in your client's CPU activity),
then any other DB request may be delayed for quite some time. Now lets assume something
else in the GUI thread is trying to do a DB access too, that could temporarily
slow down the GUI so it looks frozen, no longer shows the menu bar, whatever.
And that something could be a Window.Forms.Timer doing some simple job periodically...
Of course this is just a hunch; anyway, I suggest you look for an indirect way in which
the GUI gets hampered by the BGW (stealing too many CPU cycles due to thread priority,
stealing DB bandwitdh, a locked object, a locked file, whatever).

Both BGW connect to 2 different Database on different machines.
Process 1 is a fast one but the second is a time consuming one.
It has to check in 11 tables in 1 query. If that gives two rows of result the next agreement has to be found.
I use about 100 queries for determining the proces for 1 DBC in an arraylist.
What I do each time is to add an object in an arraylist. Based on the data in the datareader containing 25 or 1000 lines for proces 2 and 10000 lines for proces 1.
I did create an OnActiveChanged event for the Form and if I add Application.DoEvents(); The freeze get a bit less.
That's all!
Small Test results
I did check the DatabaseServer that will receive the information via Insert INTO sql's.
When I start my program the Database is at 0%. As soon as I hit the Start button the CPU for SqlServer raises up to 40-50%. It stays stable until I press the Cancel button.
My program freezes and the SqlServer user 70-80%........
This is NOT funny
